Community

Community of Thematic Networks 

To strengthen knowledge exchange in agriculture and build synergies across initiatives, AQUAGRI-KNOW is actively engaging with a broader Community of Thematic Networks.

This initiative connects experts, farmers, researchers, and businesses, facilitating knowledge sharing of best practices in agriculture. By bringing together various networks—such as NUTRI-KNOW, Soil-X-Change, and BBioNets—this community will help expand the impact of innovative agricultural solutions developed through EIP-AGRI projects. The goal is to modernise the sector through collaboration, digital innovation, and knowledge exchange, ensuring that valuable insights reach those who can benefit from them the most. 

To achieve this, AQUAGRI-KNOW will set up an interactive online platform, forums, and regular meetings to encourage peer-to-peer learning and engagement. A clear governance structure will ensure effective decision-making, while activities under four key pillars—Connect, Learn, Share, and Collaborate—will guide the community’s development. The initiative will culminate in a joint position paper, summarising the shared knowledge and recommendations to drive sustainable progress in agriculture.

Regional Social Lab dialogues 

Regional Social Lab dialogues (RSLs) are collaborative workshops that connect local communities, experts, and organisations to shape sustainable water innovations from the bottom-up.

RSLs are a series of workshops held in different regions to bring together local knowledge about the water value chain. Through structured discussions, community members, experts, and organisations collaborate to explore how new innovations in water management can fit their local needs.

Each participating country selects three case study regions where workshops are organised every six months. Led by local partners and held in national languages, these sessions ensure that solutions are both technically viable and regionally relevant, supporting long-term sustainability.

Ambassadors Programme 

The AQUAGRI-KNOW Ambassadors Programme brings together key regional actors to share knowledge and promote efficient water management practices in agriculture.

Within the programme, ambassadors will act as mentors in their territories, working closely with farmers, researchers, businesses, NGOs, and policymakers to scale up best practices and encourage the adoption of innovative solutions for water conservation and reuse on farms. With the support of the AQUAGRI-KNOW consortium, they will help diagnose water-related challenges, identify opportunities, and facilitate collaboration to drive rural innovation. 

To further amplify these efforts, each ambassador will receive a tailor-made upscaling initiative, known as The Ambassador’s Suitcase. This customized toolkit will help ambassadors implement impactful actions in their regions—ranging from policy recommendations and training materials to media campaigns and business models—ensuring the widespread adoption of EIP-AGRI OGs innovations. These initiatives will be developed with regional stakeholders and will incorporate key elements such as knowledge sharing, capacity building, institutional support, and innovation matchmaking.  

Through guidelines, online mentoring, in-person training, and collaborative events, AQUAGRI-KNOW aims to accelerate the adoption of smart water management strategies, strengthening the resilience and sustainability of agriculture.
